“Fall with Trust” (Solo Performance)

A performance about trust…

Entrance 60,- DKK

Varighed ca. 60 min.

Historier og Sange.
En potpourri af sange og fortællinger med et queer perspektiv, inspireret af Stand-Up. Jeg vil pille I nogle sprækker i et ellers så Heteronormativt samfund.

Historierne skulle helst blive lidt ”skæge” efter som jeg har gået med tegnet overskæg i 3 år af mit liv, men de kommer også til at handle om dates, sprog, om at slå, og om ikke at ville være kvinde.

Det er mig, min stemme og westernguitar.

“As We Resonate”

A sculptural body,
stuck to a pole by plaster bandages,
will slightly move into his natural form,
yet broken and exhausted.

A performance about hanging on and letting go…

Entrance 60,- DKK

Zort Zol Live 2009

In 2006 Zarathustra’s Uncle, aka Henrik Vestergaard Friis, began an artistic examination of the Danish Cultural Canon. This official list, commissioned by the Danish Cultural Minister, contains the 96 greatest works of Danish culture ever. They have enriched and influenced artists and audiences all over the world. The canon for performing arts contains twelve performances, dramas and ballets. Zarathustra‘s Uncle will reconstruct all of them. Zort Zol Live is the ninth one.

The performance is based on one of the stranger elements of the canon for performing arts: A series of concerts the infamous first Danish punk band Sort Sol gave in Copenhagen at the venues “Carlton” and “Wurst” in 1987 and 1988. The concerts were included into the canon for their impressive staging of self destructive and violent behavior, which, as the explanation by the canon committee goes, was typical for the early eighties in Denmark.

Both “Carlton” and “Wurst” were located in the immediate vicinity of “Warehouse 9″, where Zarathustra’s Uncle presents his very special interpretations of Sort Sol’s work live on stage. But Zarathustra’s Uncle does not make re-enactments. He is not interested in detail and precision. His examinations pinpoint the core of a work as he sees it and reconstruct it with a suitable contemporary artistic strategy.

To reconstruct Sort Sol‘s staging of self destructive and violent behavior, Zarathustra’s Uncle has chosen the tracks “Boy girl” from the album “Dagger & Guitar” and “Shapes of summer” from “Everything that rises must converge”. The reconstruction combines the destructive methods of boxing and contemporary noise music. Zort Zol Live 2009 is all about the Uncle’s confrontation with the specific Danishness of what may amount to be the punkiest work in the canon.

For “Zort Zol Live 2009″ Henrik collaborates with Berlin based performance artist Jörn J. Burmester with whom he has founded and played in the band projects “Die kleinen Pisser” and “Das Prinzip”. Some examples can be found at www.youtube.com/user/JoernBurmester Henrik and Jörn have also collaborated in a number of performance art collectives like Elizalde Area Code, Berlin n@work and Performer Stammtisch, performed together, and toured throughout Scandinavia with Zarathustra’s Uncle’s piece “We come in Peace”.
